Fish tales: ceviche in the market
Continuing my exploration of Lima’s markets, Steven and I head to Lima’s Mercado Central in search of some good quality fish.
Colours of the markets
SO, I think I’m slightly obsessed with Peruvian textiles… Everywhere you go, the markets are adorned with the vibrant warm hues of traditional blankets, ponchos, and the famous chullo hats.
La Cordillera Blanca
Hiking to Laguna 69 in the Cordillera Blanca. Plus a swim in the freezing glacier lake
El Lago Titicaca
Struggling with altitude sickness and sleeping in a reed hut on the mystical and stunning Lake Titicaca.
Las islas ballestas – wildlife and the desert
